Arsenal keeper Szczesny convinced of Poland quality

Poland have only featured once at the European Championship - failing to progress past the group stage in 2008 - but Szczesny believes people are finally beginning to take notice of just what they are capable of.

"I think Poland have a chance of doing well," the goalkeeper told the Official Arsenal Magazine. "The atmosphere around the national team has changed a bit and people have realised that we actually have world-class players.

"The three players from Borussia Dortmund are as good in their positions as anyone in Europe - Lukasz Piszczek is a right back and I'd easily put him in the top three in Europe, his fitness levels are something I've never seen before.
